Bookshelf With Sliding Glass Door Facing The Bed

[gohyongkwang 0]

Hi,

Based on the layout of my bedroom, my bed will be facing a bookshelf with sliding glass door. I read on the net that having a bookshelf or reflective surface (e.g. glass panels, mirrors) facing the bed are to be avoided.

The explanation given was books are like "poison arrows" and "knives" that hurt a person, and thus a book shelf of books facing a person on the bed for long period of time has detrimental effects on the person. Secondly, as for glass and reflective surface facing the bed, the reason given is they reflect bad "qi" towards the person they face.

I'm just amateur who reads some dos and don'ts on feng shui from Internet for general guidelines. So I need to confirm if these sayings are true by real feng shui experts, and how to remedy such problems, given the small size of the room, I think I may have limited choice in how I can position certain pieces of bulky furnitures.

Thanks in advance.

Some people say shelves represent Sha Qi as they look like cutting blade.

This is not true, you can have shelves in your bedroom.

We do not want mirror infront of our bed because we do not want to frighten ourselves when we sit up and see our reflection suddenly, especially in low light.

Feng Shui is a practical science and most of all it is a science of common sense.
